Course descriptions: In this course, we will introduce the basic knowledge in solid state physics and discuss several selected topics in low-dimensional electronic devices. First, we will briefly review the quantum mechanics and apply these principles to develop the basic concepts of solid state physics, including band theory and charge transport properties in metals and semiconductors. Then, in terms of these knowledge, we will discuss electronic transport properties in low-dimensional electron systems, e.g., quasi-1D nanostructures and 2D materials. Finally, we will discuss the low-frequency (1/f) noise properties in metallic nanowires and 2D semiconductors. Objectives of this course: 1. Students will learn the brief concepts of solid state physics. 2. Students will learn several selected topics in low-dimensional electronic devices, including electronic transport properties in quasi-1D nanostructures and 2D materials, and the low-frequency (1/f) noise properties in metallic nanowires and 2D semiconductors.
It would be better that the students have learned basic calculus, general physics, and introduction to quantum mechanics.
